By participating in three or more of these programs, hospitals commit to using real-time data registries, evidence-based protocols and cross-disciplinary teamwork to raise the standard of care across multiple specialties.<\/p>\n<p>The GWTG achievement awards are earned by hospitals that demonstrate a commitment to treating patients according to the most up-to-date guidelines as outlined by the American Heart Association. The program aims to increase healthy days at home and reduce hospital readmissions for heart failure patients.<\/p>\n<p>AFib affects millions of Americans, often leading to heart-related complications as well as increasing the risk for stroke fivefold. However, proper care and treatment can reduce these risks.<\/p>\n<p>About 6.7 million U.S. adults are living with heart failure, a number that is expected to increase to more than 8 million by 2030. Heart failure doesn\u2019t mean that the heart has stopped working \u2013 it means the heart is having a hard time pumping blood and oxygen throughout the body. While there\u2019s no cure for heart failure, patients can live a quality life by working with their health care team to create and stick with a plan that may include medication, symptom monitoring and lifestyle changes.<\/p>\n<p>Four Parkview hospitals were recognized earlier this year with GWTG awards for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkview.com\/news\/results\/08222025-four-parkview-hospitals-recognized-by-american-heart-association-for-excellent-stroke-care\" target=\"_blank\">excellent stroke and diabetes care<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, PRMC has also been recognized as one of the nation\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkview.com\/news\/results\/03282024-prmc-named-a-best-community-hospital-for-cardiovascular-care\" target=\"_blank\">top cardiovascular care hospitals<\/a> and was named <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkview.com\/news\/results\/07292025-prmc-and-poh-recognized-by-us-news-and-world-report#:~:text=FORT%20WAYNE%2C%20Ind.,high%20performing%E2%80%9D%20in%20three%20categories.\" target=\"_blank\">one of U.S. News and World Report Best Hospitals in Indiana<\/a>, including \u201chigh performing\u201d grades for multiple cardiovascular procedures, including abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, heart bypass surgery, pacemaker implantation and stroke.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the strengths of Parkview Regional Medical Center is having our specialty facilities like the Parkview Heart Institute on campus,\u201d said Jerry Grannan, president, PRMC and Affiliates. &#8220;Our multi-disciplinary approach to care allows patients to access the expertise for their specific health conditions while giving our providers the ability to collaborate to improve their wellbeing holistically.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/parkview\/aerialviewcore36in.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Aerial View rendering of the Parkview Regional Medical Center, under construction.
